I am a post-baccalaureate student doing research at NIH in the post-bac IRTA or tech-IRTA program. How should I apply for NIH intramural MD/PHD partnership training?
If you are not committed to the lab you are currently working in, then you should apply to the MD/PhD training programs of your choice across the country, and simultaneously apply to an NIH GPP for the Ph.D. training. You could return to your current lab after the pre-clinical years of medical school. If you are committed to finishing research training in the lab in which you are currently working before attending medical school, you can pursue by applying to a GPP PhD program and simultaneously or subsequently applying to track 3 of the M.D./Ph.D. partnership. See above for comparison of these training pathways.
